- Quotes
Cap: Hey, what's happened? Nobody come down to the boat.
Wexler: Shut up, Cap.
Cap: Yeah, but you guys said...
Lonnie: Cap! Later
Wexler: The word is that that Mannix is nobody to fool around with, so we got to move fast.
Chili Dog: How?
Wexler: Well, we'll use the same plan we had for Diana: kill her, dump her off Cap's boat. Lonnie, I'd, uh, I'd like you to take care of that for me.
Lonnie: Me?
Wexler: I need somebody I can depend on. Besides... you have a... way with women.
[chuckles]
Cap: Fog's coming in now, though. You're gonna have to wait for it to lift.
Wexler: Of all the boats in the marina, you have to have one with a busted radar!
Cap: Still ain't no better boat on the coast! You can ask anyone!
Wexler: All right. All right! Wait. Just let me know when it's over. Lonnie... this time, no mistakes.
Chili Dog: Lonnie, about the foul-up, I really feel bad.
Lonnie: Get lost.

Peggy is wearing coral lipstick. Bright coral. Mannix often worse a touch of pale coral in the center and towards the inside of his bottom lip. In fact, even many of his female scene co-stars wore it in the same fashion, from the same tube. It looked odd. But Peggy pulls off the coral lipstick well. It matches her coral coat. Now, Mannix is in the 10 min from the end scene, and he is wearing that pale coral lipstick on his bottom lip: it matches the pale orange squares of his dreadfully checkered jacket.
The scene where Mannix checks out th bad guy's place (Lonny's) is weird; why would the bad guy have a for sale sign outside, if he's doing bad guy things, like abducting Peggy inside the house? Hmm...
I have no idea how the episode ends, but I hope Peggy and Lonny get married and he becomes Mannix second banana. The guy has too much style and class not to be in every Mannix episode. At least, it would make it watchable for me. He looks great in a pale blue itchy linen suit.
I'm giving it 8 stars because Mannix is still a boring show. I mean when Peggy drops a can, why do the bad guys look that way? Couldn't it be a cat or a ghost? Or the ghost of a cat? The actress who played Peggy became a cocaine addict and that put a damper on my liking her as a kid. Actors who worked as P. I.'s cops or secretaries for Mannix ought never mess with the drugs. The end.
